The Ohanaeze leader said this during an interview on Arise News on Saturday, March 16, 2024, where he condemned the alleged persecution of the Igbos in Lagos and other parts of the country. The Ohanaeze leader said he has managed to persuade his people to remain calm amid the challenges, saying the stereotypes against the South Easterners were borne out of sheer ignorance and envy. "I've told my people, most of them are frustrated. Yes, I've seen some Igbo names there, but there's no tribe in Nigeria that's not involved in drug trafficking. It's not Igbos," Iwuanyanwu said.
